Gran Turismo 6 demo out now

The Gran Turismo 6 demo is now available to download from PlayStation Network, giving PS3 gamers the chance to try out the racing sequel ahead of its release later this year.

The demo is structured as a GT Academy-style driver training concept where players progressively learn the skills required to push for faster lap times.

The demo features the Silverstone circuit, new to Gran Turismo 6. Once you have proved your skills in the early round you'll unlock special bonus content.

The demo is actually billed on the store as GT Academy 2013 and is the start of this year's competition. GT Academy remains open until Sunday, July 28, whilst the demo itself will remain available until August 31.
